Apocalypse Guitar

So I’m surprised
this hasn’t come up before
but it’s going to be
a lot harder for you
to ever fall in love with me
if you never return my calls.

But maybe you have a different plan.
Maybe you plan to fall for me
through other means.
Maybe you’re thinking of us screwing
until we see something happen
between us.
I am all right with that plan

but I do want to know
what to expect
and you’re not providing much
in the way of tactics
as to how we will ever end up together.

So pick up the phone
or give me your real number
or whatever it is humans do
in this mating dance that we’re messing up so badly.
See? I can take responsibility, too.
I admit I have contributed well
to this reign of errors
in our nascent love.
But we both have to work at it
if anything is ever going change.

So?
What can we do? Oh:
I’m Jon, by the way.
